%N Number of regions formed in a square by straight line segments when connecting the n+1 points along each edge that divide it into n equal parts to the n+1 points on the edge on the opposite side of the square.

%C This sequence is similar to A355798 but here the corner vertices of the square are also connected to points on the opposite edge.
